Jesse Watters: "ANTIFA members teach elementary school and then go throw molotov cocktails at buildings?"
Karlyn Borysenko: "Oh, 100%, I was just at a couple anarchist book fairs. The police are taking a lax approach to ANTIFA, especially in Portland. I haven't seen any arrests."

Elon moves $133 million in crypto from SpaceX, and Trump accepts a $130 million donation. Hmmm… is Elon buying his spot back? Probably just an odd coincidence.
